About the Event

Welcome to the third annual Plein Air Paint Out, a juried competition benefitting Adams Farm.Some HistoryAfter painting October at Adams Farm (pictured
below), I decided to donate it to the Friends of Adams Farm (FOAF) who raffled it off to raise money for the maintenance and
enhancement of the Farm. During our conversations, I was told that
the FOAF had always wanted to sponsor an event for artists, so I volunteered to
organize this Paint Out.
